Place /usr/lib/samba (or your directory with *.tdb files)
on a shared device and switched together with the rest of ha-resources.

By the way, this could cause some problems if your binaries
are placed in the same directory as *.tdb databases, as for example SuSE
does.

Anyway, You has been warned :-)
